North San Juan

North San Juan is a small town on Hwy 49 on the San Juan Ridge in the Gold Country. The last census in 2010 said the population was 269 and the area of North San Juan is only 2.4 square miles. This small town dates back to the gold rush.

Like the surrounding area, North San Juan has a warm Mediterranean climate. The town at one time was a center of hydraulic mining but now is a quiet community with reasonably priced homes.
